Panasonic Toughbook A3
Key specs
Critic consensus
“High quality glossy touchscreen wrapped in a lightweight rugged chassis and powered by a mid-range Snapdragon 660 SoC. The Android 9.0 software and USB-C port give it more potential features and versatility than most others in the rugged tablet category.”
“Panasonic's new TOUGHBOOK A3 is a 10.1-inch Android tablet built for police, EMT, military, and government. It's tough as hell, lasts all day, has built-in dual LTE abilities, and can be used in the rain. It's the one Android tablet that first-line workers need.”
“The Panasonic Toughbook A3 is well-suited for tough jobs in less than ideal conditions thanks to its IP65 and MIL-STD-810G certifications. The tablet features an 800 nit display with anti-reflective coating for outdoor use and the device can easily be customized to meet the needs of both field workers and first responders.”
“I really love Panasonic Toughbooks. It just feels like they can do anything. They're expandable, they have cellular connectivity, and more. With 4G LTE, a super-bright screen, and powerful audio, I feel like the Toughbook A3 can be used anywhere. The biggest issue is probably the price, as this thing starts at $2,699. Of course that, and my issue with the OS version, is by design. While the A3 has mid-range specs, it's not a mid-range device. It's a rugged tablet with pen support, dual-SIM 4G LTE connectivity, dual hot swappable batteries, an 800-nit display, and 94dBA audio.”
